SHORT HAND WRITERS.
The Objects of the Proposed State AS
ISOLATION.

SOCldUlOu.
The movement among short hand writers
TO organize a State Association is generally
Endorsed by the fraternity. In the past few
years short hand has been brought into gem
eral use by all large mercantile houses and
corporations, until 1t is looked upon as an
absolute necessity for the transaction of bus
mess. The number of short hand writers is
increasing at rapid rate and like all other
professions, it contains good bad and indif-
ferent members who can be had at salaries
commensurate with their ability.
There are y said a shorthand writer of a
dozen years experience, TO a MORNING
NEWS reporter last night, "SEaBy who enter
upon the study as mere mechanical trade,
and who overlook entirely the intellectual
qualifications which are indispensable to a
due fulfillment Of the multifarious functions
of a short hand writer. To learn TO write
Theoretically eighty or ninety words min
ute" he added, "can be accomplished in
few months, but that is simply
beginning, and yet there are many who &C
cept positions when they have become thus
far advanced, and with but limited scho-
lastic training. Even should they attain
the requisite speed for all practical purposes,
and not more than one in ten ever does
their lack Of knowledge Of the rudiments Of
the English language units them for the
practice of the profession. Unaware of the
extent of their own ignorance and totally
unconscious of their mistakes, they blunder
through their notes, producing a mass Of UNI
connected and unintelligible sentences.
THE profession should be elevated to where
it properly belongs, and to accomplish this
is one of the objects of the proposed organi-
zation. An effort will be made to secure
the adoption of a rule requiring all appli-
cants for membership to pass rigid ex
animation in all that pertains to the qualif-
cations of a good shorthand writer. This
will be protection to those desiring steno-
graphic help. and q certificate of member
ship in this association will be sufficient
evidence that the holder is competent

SOUTH GEORGIA MELONS.

An Experimental Shipment by Ex-
press to Boston.
The Savannah, Florida and Western rail
road sent fifteen carloads of melons from
Valdosta on Friday night to Boston by an
express train. This is the first shipment of
the kind to that city, and the experiment is
watched with considerable interest. Four
hundred and eighty carloads of melons have
been shipped to maket this year from South
Georgia over the Savannah, Florida and
Western road. When it is remembered that
these melons bring from $50 to 500 per car
at the stations from which they are shipped
it will be seen that melons bring quite a
handsome sum of money into South Geor-
gia every year.
